Placement analysis of combined renewable and conventional distributed energy resources within a radial distribution network
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)System islanding, relay tripping, and reverse power flow-like issues in the distribution network are all caused by randomly placed distributed energy resources. To minimize such problems, distributed energy resource (DER) ... -
Reinforcement Learning based Fault-Tolerant Routing Algorithm for Mesh based NoC and its FPGA Implementation
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)Network-on-Chip (NoC) has emerged as the most promising on-chip interconnection framework in Multi-Processor System-on-Chips (MPSoCs) due to its efficiency and scalability. In the deep submicron level, NoCs are vulnerable ... -
Sorterius - An augmented reality app for encouraging outdoor physical activity for people with intellectual disabilities
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)Many with intellectual disabilities (ID) have difficulties adhering to current physical activity guidelines. The goal of this study was to develop a mobile app for assisting people with ID to be more physically active. We ... -
Stabilizing selection on Atlantic cod supergenes through a millennium of extensive exploitation
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)Life on Earth has been characterized by recurring cycles of ecological stasis and disruption, relating biological eras to geological and climatic transitions through the history of our planet. Due to the increasing degree ... -
Mating activity and parturition of the smooth snake Coronella austriaca in Norway

A roadmap for understanding the evolutionary significance of structural genomic variation
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)Structural genomic variants (SVs) take diverse forms and are ubiquitous drivers of ecological and evolutionary processes. Most studies of SVs focus on the adaptive significance of gene duplications and large inversions. ... -
MapAI: Precision in BuildingSegmentation
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)MapAI: Precision in Building Segmentation is a competition arranged with the Norwegian Artificial Intelligence Research Consortium (NORA) 1 in collaboration with Centre for Artificial Intelligence Research at the University ... -
Upwelled plankton community modulates surface bloom succession and nutrient availability in a natural plankton assemblage
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022) -
Adaptive Backstepping Control of a 2-DOF Helicopter System with Uniform Quantized Inputs
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)This paper proposes a new adaptive controller for a 2-Degree of Freedom (DOF) helicopter system in the presence of input quantization. The inputs are quantized by uniform quantizers. A nonlinear mathematical model is derived ... -
Thermo-piezo-rheological characterization of asphalt concrete
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)The linear viscoelastic (LVE) properties of asphalt concrete is investigated in this paper using a controlled-strain triaxial dynamic modulus test over wide frequency, temperature, and confining pressure ranges. The ... -
Reinforcement learning with intrinsic affinity for personalized prosperity management
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)The purpose of applying reinforcement learning (RL) to portfolio management is commonly the maximization of profit. The extrinsic reward function used to learn an optimal strategy typically does not take into account any ... -
Expert Q-learning: Deep Reinforcement Learning with Coarse State Values from Offline Expert Examples
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)In this article, we propose a novel algorithm for deep reinforcement learning named Expert Q-learning. Expert Q-learning is inspired by Dueling Q-learning and aims to incorporate semi-supervised learning into reinforcement ... -
Reinforcement Learning Your Way : Agent Characterization through Policy Regularization
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)The increased complexity of state-of-the-art reinforcement learning (RL) algorithms has resulted in an opacity that inhibits explainability and understanding. This has led to the development of several post hoc explainability ... -
Towards Responsible AI for Financial Transactions
(Chapter; Peer reviewed, 2020)The application of AI in finance is increasingly dependent on the principles of responsible AI. These principles-explainability, fairness, privacy, accountability, transparency and soundness form the basis for trust in ... -
Clustering in Recurrent Neural Networks for Micro-Segmentation using Spending Personality
(Chapter; Peer reviewed, 2021)Customer segmentation has long been a productive field in banking. However, with new approaches to traditional problems come new opportunities. Fine-grained customer segments are notoriously elusive and one method of ... -
Affinity-Based Reinforcement Learning : A New Paradigm for Agent Interpretability
(Doctoral Dissertations at the University of Agder; no. 395, Doctoral thesis, 2023)The steady increase in complexity of reinforcement learning (RL) algorithms is accompanied by a corresponding increase in opacity that obfuscates insights into their devised strategies. Methods in explainable artificial ... -
An Extension of Weyl’s Equidistribution Theorem to Generalized Polynomials and Applications
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)Generalized polynomials are mappings obtained from the conventional polynomials by the use of the operations of addition and multiplication and taking the integer part. Extending the classical theorem of Weyl on equidistribution ... -
Genetic structuring in Atlantic haddock contrasts with current management regimes
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)The advent of novel genetic methods has made it possible to investigate population structure and connectivity in mobile marine fish species: knowledge of which is essential to ensure a sustainable fishery. Haddock ... -
